A method, system and article of manufacture for organizing and grouping objects is provided. By assigning property names and values to a plurality of related objects, they may be organized into a group and one object of the group may be displayed as the representative. Grouping objects and displaying a representative provides a single way to keep objects organized, keep "reminders" of things to do or future events, all accessible through a central interface, and reduces the amount of display and storage space required to view and store all the objects. Additionally, the group of objects may be treated as a single document and the representative returned as a result of a search where one of the objects meets the search parameters.
